Why write about Roman Polanski's 'Macbeth' as part of a series of books dedicated to the classics of the horror movie genre? Because, this book argues, just as Banquo in Polanski's film holds up a series of mirrors that reflect images of his successors that trace back to his own son Fleance, so subsequent milestones in the genre show their lineage to this work, their originator. Polanski had previously made 'Repulsion' and 'Rosemary's Baby', so he was fully aware of the conventions of the horror genre and this film provides clues to his own horror lexicon. This book demonstrates how Macbeth can be read as part of the British folk tradition, strengthening the reading of the film as a horror movie in its own right through its links to 'The Wicker Man', 'Blood on Satan's Claw' and 'Witchfinder General' then argues for its recognition as a horror movie even further, by connecting it to the later American horror classics.
